​EMBODIED ABSENCE AND EVOKING THE ANCESTORS:  A COLLABORATIVE ENCOUNTER
​Davina Kirkpatrick, 2020

LINK: Art/Research International: A Transdisciplinary JournalVolume 5 Issue 1, 2020
​
The following narrative explores how the production of visual artwork and co-created ritual experience in a chosen landscape weaves a gossamer safety net across the chasm of loss and raises questions of absence and presence, personal loss and the collaborative shared experience; the power of ritual, conversation, and object-making give attention to the presence of absence. My argument builds on the notion of presence, manifest absence and Otherness (Law, 2004, pp. 84-85) and extends the ideas that absence can be located in space and have materiality and agency (Meyer & Woodthorpe, 2008). (Kirkpatrick, 2020)
